| CPN | Comet F6F Hellcat | Parked | 01-Feb-11 23:10 |  | | Views : 1750 | | Still to come - pitot static tube, machine guns and a bit of touch up on the canopy. Guillows's cowls used to be my kryptonite. They never fit. Now I think it is the comet canopy. |

| CPN | Comet F6F Hellcat | Parked | 01-Feb-11 23:08 |  | | Views : 1743 | | Check out the tail wheel. Movable rudder. |
| CPN | Comet F6F Hellcat | Parked | 01-Feb-11 23:07 |  | | Views : 1660 | | The front. Maybe I'll make a scale propellor for it... Maybe not. |
| CPN | Comet F6F Hellcat | Parked | 01-Feb-11 23:07 |  | | Views : 1774 | | The bottom! No kidding. |

| CPN | Comet F6F Hellcat | Parked | 30-Jan-11 12:04 |  | | Views : 1720 | | Still to do: balance, paint and permanently attach landing gear, add the pitot static tube, machinegun barrels and antennas. |
| CPN | Comet F6F Hellcat | Parked | 30-Jan-11 12:03 |  | | Views : 1759 | | No decals - all airbrushed stencils. |
| CPN | Comet F6F Hellcat | Parked | 30-Jan-11 12:02 |  | | Views : 1738 | | Here's a progress update. The wheels are just stuck in the holes in the wing waiting for glue. I had planned on making the landing gear removable but as much fun as this build has been, it is time to move on. |
| CPN | Comet F6F Hellcat | Parked | 16-Jan-11 13:51 |  | | Views : 1901 | | Here you can see the carved cowl and the capopy detail. This thing is going to be heavy but tough, like all Grumman products. |
| CPN | Comet F6F Hellcat | Parked | 16-Jan-11 13:50 |  | | Views : 1710 | | Here are some cowl details. I have some more work to do on the bottom exhaust oulet and some smoothing of the cowl flaps to do. |
